Every Muslim who performs ablution, Allah SWT will forgive his mistakes. In addition, ablution can also increase a person’s degree and will always be given patience when facing displeased matters. This is as stated in one hadith, Rasulullah SAW said:
“Will I show you what makes Allah erase mistakes and elevate degrees?” The companions replied, “Of course, O Apostle.” He continued, “Complete ablution on cold mornings, be patient in dealing with displeased matters, take more steps to the mosque, and wait for prayer after prayer. That is ribath, “(Narrated by Muslim)
Letting go of the Shackles and his wish was granted
Rasulullah SAW once described that people who sleep have several shackles. However, if the person wakes up and performs ablution, the fetters will be released and all his wishes will be granted. As stated in the following hadith, which means:
“Two men from my ummah where one of them wakes up at night and takes himself to purify, while he is shackled several shackles, then ablution. When ablution wash his hands, one fetters are released. When ablution wash his face, then the other shackles are released. rubbing his head, the other fetters were released. When washing his feet, the next fetters were released. Then, the Rabb said to those behind the veil, ‘Look at my servant. He overcomes himself. Whatever my servant asks of -I then request it for him, “(Narrated by Ibn Hibban).

Rasulullah SAW himself suggested to exceed the body that was washed during ablution, so that on the Day of Resurrection it will look radiant. This is as explained in one of the following hadiths, which means:
“Indeed, my people on the Day of Resurrection will be al-ghurr and al-muhajjalun because of ablution. Anyone who is able to lengthen his ghurr should do it !,” (Narrated by Ahmad).
